1/8 lf 7 monks for 8man fow MONKS ONLY!
Rainman
hi folks as you can see from the title i want to try 8man fow with nothing but MONKS!
i play my monk all the time and i was thinking : why not try doing fow without all of the monks in the party bonding or protting or healing for once. i am really tired of having a party where smiters (which are actually pretty effective btw!) arent wanted at all but only healers protters and bonders.
my idea so far is:
600 tank
smite bonder
sb echo (arcane)
protter (possibly ZB)
2 healers (LoD or WoH or HB )
1 smiter with Shield of judgement
1 smiter with signet of judgement
and finally 1 mo/n 55 bip possibly taking some smites aswell
all characters take essence bond for energy but if you lose any the bipper can bip you . your post should look something like this
(this would be mine)
Name: Man In Red
server : European
Timezone: GMT
build: tank smitebonder or 1 of the 2 smiters.
ty peeps and im hoping for a full party of 8 so we can all have some fun with teh monks!

most likely you wouldnt need 8 monk maybe like 5 is good enough
Rainman

You need more firepower and less healing in that setup.
a 600 tank AND a prot AND 2 healers? That won't do it for me...

this is a stub atm its NOT complete. the healers and prot are for the smiters using SoJ. its better if they stay alive so they can kill. ty anarion being my first sign up it is now 2/8!
Skuld
Bring 8 copies of signet of judgement and quickening zephyr imo
MirkoTeran
Well, I'm also up for it and can play any role.
I've played in monk-only FoW groups a few times in the past and fun. Our usual team was 1 heal/prot, 1 prot and 6 smithers (most of them SoJ) with some heal or prot for backup.

nice 2 sign ups and skuld that would be pretty darn awesome except the fact its a ha build :P.
mirko i chose the tank specifically because the 600 and smiter can duo a lot of uw. the only diffirence is that the enemies die faster so his sb can stay on long enough for us to pwn the mesmer
come on folks we need more people!! 3/8 ony 5 more!

I think this would be a blast, but I'm still waiting on a Graphics Card RMA.

I think it would be fun, and I too can fill any of the above roles.
When are you aiming for? I recommend we have fun with this over the free FoW UW weekend.

Dr Dem
dang, I'd sign up, as my monk is my main char, and I'm running out of things to do with him!
Unfortunatly, I'm pretty busy and probs not be able to make it >.<
Goodluck though, if you do it, post some screenies and tell us how it goes

why dont you just focus on a single tank, 55 with either SoJ or SB with a prot bonder, healer with LoD(not really neccessary, just a precaution), a BiP 55, 2 Air of Enchantment Smiters(with different enchantments), and 2 Signet of Judgement Smiters?
as long as the tank can keep aggro you will have tremendous damage and protection

As Rainman stated before, the build setup is not carved in stone, we'll most likely work on the team build once we actually meet up in-game.
